  2. 1. Picophytoplankton seasonal dynamics in the Baltic Sea

    Author : Javier Alegria Zufía; Hanna Farnelid; Catherine Legrand; Nathan Ahlgren; Linnéuniversitetet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; picophytoplankton; Synechococcus; picoeukaryote; phycoerythrin; phycocyanin; ammonium; nitrate; 16S rDNA; flow cytometry; grazing; viral lysis; seasonality; Akvatisk ekologi; Aquatic Ecology;

    Abstract : Picophytoplankton (15°C there was a preference for ammonium over nitrate. Clade A/B dominated the SYN community, except during summer at the coastal station when low nitrate and warm temperatures promoted S5.2 dominance. Grazing was observed to control SYN and PPE abundances and had an effect on the SYN community structure. READ MORE

  4. 2. Structural and functional studies of the ATP-dependent Clp proteases in cyanobacteria

    Author : Frida Ståhlberg; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Växtmolekylärbiologi; Clp Proteaser; Synechococcus elongatus;

    Abstract : Proteins are essential in all living organisms and they are involved in a myriad of biological functions. It is vital for cells to have efficient surveillance and quality control systems that ensure damaged proteins are either repaired to their functional state or quickly removed by degradation.

  5. 3. Molecular evidence for metazooplankton feeding on filamentous cyanobacteria and picocyanobacteria in the Baltic Sea

    Author : Nisha Motwani; Elena Gorokhova; Agneta Andersson; Jakob Walve; Karolina Ininbergs; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; marin ekologi; Marine Ecology;

    Abstract : Interactions between zooplankton and cyanobacteria are complex and system-specific. They play an important role in mediating responses of phytoplankton to changes in nutrient regime and top-down manipulations. READ MORE

  6. 4. Increased Carbon Fixation for Chemical Production in Cyanobacteria

    Author : Claudia Durall de la Fuente; Peter Lindblad; George Owttrim; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The combustion of fossil fuels has created many environmental problems, the major one, the greenhouse effect. Thus, we need solutions in order to replace fossil fuels and recycle the CO2 in the atmosphere. Renewable energies have created attention the last decades but electricity is the main energy form obtained. READ MORE

  7. 5. Biochemical studies of the essential Clp protease in cyanobacteria and its associated adaptor proteins

    Author : Anders Tryggvesson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Clp-protease; Cyanaobacteria; adaptor proteins;

    Abstract : Proteins are an essential part of all organisms and are involved in many cellular processes. To regulate the function of proteins and facilitate their removal when damaged or otherwise compromised, sophisticated control systems have evolved that include molecular chaperones and proteases.
